The early Matchbox Accessories were something I loved as a kid and actually owned a couple when I was very young. My originals are gone but I have acquired some very nice issues in different colour mixes and boxes.
This early issue Matchbox accessory MG1 was available as red building with yellow forecourt. The Esso accessory pack #1 of the petrol pumps and sign I think were separate to the garage but shown here for completing the display.

This is a later issue of the MG2 now in green and white and BP livery. It also came in a gift set with a number of cars including #13d Dodge BP wreck truck.
The second issue of the Matchbox garage was a 2 storey building with a rear ramp and a car showroom as well as workshop. The livery was red and yellow and Esso branded.
